I’m having a look at the flight model again, looking at my old IDA database and stuff. I found that TFXplorer does not properly model the drag increase with extended gear. To enable this, the function computeAerodynamicForceZ_604640() needs a fix in the last condition: if(isOnGround()) { if(isGearDo...

Funny little thing: Start the Takeoff Training mission. Immediately start your engines. As fast as you can, taxi out into the desert. Before the clock hits 10:00:14, eject ( Shift + Esc , Esc ). Your F-22 will be stuck on the ground for a few seconds while your chute opens. Then, it will magically (...

You can use the [ var ] BBcode for monospaced text, like int i = 0; – just like HTML’s <var>. Of course, there is still [ code ] for multi-line text.

The new [ kbd ] BBcode displays keys as such, e. g. Shift + F5.

… and its files start with 'OSL1' indeed. Excellent find! 👍

The other great resource on procedural content is from the VoxelFarm creator: http://procworld.blogspot.com/

Too bad there haven’t been updates in a while …

Great stuff 👍

Earlier this week, the Internet Archive uploaded a few hundred CD-ROMs with press kits for computer games . I skimmed over it and found an interesting item in a related collection : A press kit that was produced by Infogrames in 1998 for the E3. It does, in fact, contain artwork for F-22 ADF, Red Se...

I left the 250 pictures that were uploaded 2007-2011 in Photobucket, but have downloaded a backup. Cool! I backed up your Photobucket in 2015, saving 231 pictures (remember, I don’t trust 3rd party sites). Gonna compress them and PM them to you once I find the time! I actually used to pay for a Pho...

I suppose I should do that again. I guess the pictures I directly uploaded to Combatsim are part of the forum database. Even worse: Any pictures wider than 1000 pixels have been scaled down to 1000 pixels. So if you had small text in those shots and haven’t saved the originals, it’s likely gone. Al...

Total Air War 2.0 is a total conversion of F-22 Total Air War (TAW) , and also includes the campaigns from F-22 Air Dominance Fighter (ADF) and the Red Sea Operations (RSO) expansion disc. The goal of TAW 2.0 is to provide a simulation experience that equals or surpasses your fond memories with the...

I wonder how that game compares in complexity to TFX1. It was released after TAW, and in direct comparison with our reverse engineered TAW code I’d say less vehicle simulation (the car simulation should fit on in 100 lines) a lot more collision detection code (obvious if you think about TAW not eve...

A while back, I was asked about being able to provide some of the modding utilities by MarkG; utilities which were instrumental in TAW 2.0. I got permission from Mark a while back, and I am pleased to say that I have found TAWTM on one of my cloud accounts. TAWTM Setup.exe A video demonstration I f...

Mainly I cannot find any "alive" place to download Mark Gonzales' TAW Texture Manager. Here you go! http://simforums.krishty.com/viewtopic.php?p=22#p22 Regarding textures, DKD is the absolute authority. There’s different formats (palettized, true-color, different resolutions) which are ti...

Going through old threads, I noticed that TFXplorer texture management has two shortcomings: It does not differentiate between the TM and the SPR directory. This is appearently caused by a byte in the shape header being 31 instead of 21 ; I need to link the exact source. It does not work with DKD’s ...

So, the TFXplorer repository didn’t have updates for a while. Here’s why. Aside from TAW stuff, my family, and my job (I’m left with only one this year), and my other / other other game modding stuff, I maintain a few programs from my time in previous jobs. These share huge parts of TFXplorer’s code...

Sounded like an exaggeration, but indeed! That’s awesome
